Bringing the Target into the Optical Path
(Horizontal Stage Movement, Rotation)
When using a manual rotatable ceramic coated stage, use the stage X, Y knobs or rotate the top stage plate to move the
specimen and bring the target into the optical path. (So that the sample sealed under the cover glass will be lighted.)
When using a motorized XY stage, use the ergo controller or joystick to control the horizontal stage movement. (See “20
Using the Ergo Controller” and “21 Using the Joystick Controller”.)
